Hi my name is Richard and I will be the transporter for your pets. Let me start out by saying I was born in upstate N.Y., moved to Florida in 1991, which I still reside at. I have been doing this for 10plus year. Before this I ran my own tow truck company, I have had many years of travel under my belt between the two. I am a family man, been married for 32 year, have 2 daughters and 1 son, along with 5 grandkids. I love to travel and meet new people, see new things. We are all pet lovers and have pets as well, so your pet will be in great hands with us.

Hi my name is Richard and I will be the transporter for your pets. I am USDA and Insured, with this in mind please understand each pet will need to ride in a carrier or a seatbelt harness, they will need a puppy health certificate (8-16 wks old) and utd shot records, if 16weeks and older. All dogs over 16week old will have potty and play time every 2-3 hrs. My wife does the scheduling and sends updates to you so I dont have to bother with the phone while on the road, I update her at gas stops and send her pictures to send to you. She also takes care of speaking with you on here. I drive a 2019 chevy express and only travel with 5-6 pets at a time depending on size, we do offer private rides, but please keep in mind that cost more then a shared ride. All pets have their one on one time out to play and use the bathroom, no two pets unless from the same family go out together. Puppies 8-16wks old will never be out on the ground and will have their puppy pads and carrier cleaned as soon and they mess it. We have pets and have had them all our lives, so you can rest assured when your pets are with me they will be treated like my own and will be spoiled. We have many regulars, rescue groups, breeders, snowbirds, people that move sue to their job, we also place bids on Uship and Citenshippers. We travel the whole U.S.A.
Safe, compassionate delivery

Linda and Richard were awesome! We were able to have everything arranged and set up in less than 24 hours.

So, we ended up canceling and going with a different driver, but only because of scheduling changes. I would absolutely book with them again, they were SO nice and professional!
60 lbs Lab from Nashville, TN to Bend, OR (2246 mi)
This dynamic duo is second to none. Linda takes care of the phone and Richard takes the best care of the pups, driving cross country with clean kennels, clean puppy pads, new collars and new toys. He was very sweet with our baby. Communication was great knew where they were when they would get there. Easy pay through PayPal. Will reserve in advance to make sure he is available on our next litter.
Shipper was great. I have never used a transporter before, they were awesome at helping me understand the process. Richard was very good with my puppy and cared for her as he would have his own. Highly recommend. Thank you

1 lbs Cat from Goshen, IN to Royal Palm Beach, FL (1290 mi)
Hi. First time customer I was so worry about sending my pet alone. But the driver was very nice and assure me his arrival. Fast delivery very happy.
12 lbs Chihuahuas from Salem, OR to Los Angeles, CA (923 mi)
We had a little difficulty, initially, getting a definite pick up/delivery date ironed out but there had been mechanical difficulties before our trip and Richard was working out a combination ride with 2 other dogs coming to CA. But they picked up on the designated day, giving updates about traffic and needing to move pickup time back, and delivered within 3 days. It would have been sooner but they hit a winter storm that slowed everything down. The dogs were happy and adjusted immediately to our apartment. That has to be in large part due to Richard's care of them over the 3 day trip. So much stress went into researching how to get our dogs transported that we are really glad it went so well.
We are very happy that we transported our puppy to her new home with this shipper! They did a great job communicating with us along the way. The puppy arrived happy and healthy to her forever home. We will definitely be using them again!
57 lbs Cane Corsos from Lutz, FL to Waxhaw, NC (569 mi)
Excellent experience!
Richard and his wife are great people. They took my puppy from Daytona Beach, Fl to Michigan. Richard's wife is dealing with text messages ( always respond really fast in 10 minutes) and sending the pictures during the trip. Richard is the driver and who takes care of the puppy. He took all my stuff with dog even though they were a lot. This is my first time to move my pet with Richard, and of course it won't be the last time. Great price comparing to other drivers in the website. Thank you again.

57 lbs German Shepherds from Zeeland, MI to Raceland, LA (1066 mi)
Outstanding! Dog was picked up and arrived on time in perfect shape. Service went beyond my expectations! I'll ship with this team again!
22 lbs Dogs from Oxford, MS to Pittsburgh, PA (810 mi)
Wow! Richard was great! He went above and beyond to get our puppy safely home promptly. His wife kept us updated throughout the trip and was super friendly! He didn’t let the puppy out on the ground to play but inside the vehicle and the puppy went on potty pads to keep the dog safe. I prefer with a little puppy to not stop at rest areas and what not because there are so many animals stopping there also. He also cleans the crate before and after use. I will be using him again if something comes up!
8 lbs Sheepadoodle from Des Moines, IA to Knoxville, TN (830 mi)

11 lbs Labs from Elkader, IA to Annapolis, MD (965 mi)
Not only was Hank delivered early, he was well fed and loved the entire trip!! Hank was picked up from a less than ideal place, and the driver was concerned for the other dog that is there, and put a safety plan in to action for her. When he arrived with Hank he spent an hour talking with me and showing me the commands he had already taught Hank n the 2 days it took to bring him to his new home. He had also bought Hank some toys and left those with him as well. I can’t say enough positive things about this experience or these drivers. Thank you from Hank and his new momma. Y’all are life savers ❤️
They were absolutely fantastic!! Kept in great contact. My dog just loved him!! Super fast, professional, safe. I would absolutely recommend. I would use them again ANY time!!!!
60 lbs Pit bull mix from Tampa, FL to Helena, MT (2520 mi)
Richard and Linda are wonderful! Our Penny arrived safe and sound. Penny was well taken care of and we kept in constant contact. If I ever need transportation again, I would hire you all in a heartbeat. Thank you
Dogs from Flora, IN to Brooksville, FL (1024 mi)
Excellent.low cost,fast,
Cats from Fort Myers, FL to Klamath Falls, OR (3119 mi)
These people are amazing, The price was great and the service was even better. The original kennel that my cats were given to me were way to small, and low cost shippers moved them into a much bigger kennel for the long journey to Tennessee. They are mindful and communicate quickly and clearly every step of the way. I would certainly use their service again.
Cats from Fort Lauderdale, FL to Nashville, TN (893 mi)
Richard was very kind. He kept us updated from Florida to Texas. Would use him again. =)

Will you ship without a vet issued health certificate or UTD shot records?
No we must have a vet issued health certificate on any pet under 16wks of age, over 16wks must have a UTD shot record. This protects everyone and ensures us the pets are healthy and ready for travel.
Do you crate all pets on board? Or do some run lose?
USDA states all pets must be in a hard top plastic carrier, or a seat belt harness for safety, if a pet is to big for a carrier he/she may ride with the seatbelt harness, but has to be well behaved with us getting in and out of the van and other pets on board when they are taken out of their carrier for potty breaks, if not that pet will have to have a private ride.
Do you use pet friendly hotels? If not where would my pet sleep?
We sleep in the van right with the pets, if for some reason as for weather and a hotel is in need we will only stay at pet friendly hotels.
